that which appears - George Thomas Clark
that which appears gathers together four book-length sequences; The Hundred Thousand Places, Yellow & Blue and Farm by the Shore, all previously published by Carcanet, plus the title book, that which appears, published by Paragon Press (1994).The poems gathered in that which appears emerge from a practice of walking in the varied landscapes of the highlands and islands of Scotland. They attempt to attend and respond to the evidence, to ''snow on moss on stone'', with ''small continual adjustments''.A conviction grows that environmental damage can only begin to be repaired by many careful and repeated acts of attention. How can we move here with resourcefulness and least intrusion? Can poetry be generous in response while subject to an ethic of care for place and particularity? Can it provide spaces that will allow for, that welcome and celebrate, that which appears?

You Belong Here - Megan Miranda
Memories fade, but on this campus, legacies are never forgotten…or forgiven. A new thriller from New York Times bestselling author Megan Miranda. Beckett Bowery never thought she’d return to Wyatt Valley, a picturesque college town in the Virginia mountains steeped in tradition. Her roots there were strong: Beckett’s parents taught at the college, and she never even imagined studying anywhere else—until a tragedy her senior year ended with two local men dead, and her roommate on the run, never to be seen again… For the last two decades, Beckett has done her best to keep her distance. Then her daughter, Delilah, secretly applies to Wyatt College and earns a full scholarship, and Beckett can only hope that her lingering fears are unfounded. But deep down she knows that Wyatt Valley has a long memory, and that the past isn’t the only dangerous thing in town…

Where Beauty Survived - George Elliott Clarke
“Powerful.” —Toronto Star A vibrant, revealing memoir about the cultural and familial pressures that shaped George Elliott Clarke’s early life in the Black Canadian community that he calls Africadia, centred in Halifax, Nova Scotia.As a boy, George Elliott Clarke knew that a great deal was expected from him and his two brothers. The descendant of a highly accomplished lineage on his paternal side—great-grandson to William Andrew White, the first Black officer (non-commissioned) in the British army—George felt called to live up to the family name. In contrast, his mother''s relatives were warm, down-to-earth country folk. Such contradictions underlay much of his life and upbringing—Black and White, country and city, outstanding and ordinary, high and low. With vulnerability and humour, George shows us how these dualities shaped him as a poet and thinker.At the book’s heart is George’s turbulent relationship with his father, an autodidact who valued art, music and books but worked an unfulfilling railway job. Bill could be loving and patient, but he also acted out destructive frustrations, assaulting George’s mother and sometimes George and his brothers, too.Where Beauty Survived is the story of a complicated family, of the emotional stress that white racism exerts on Black households, of ...

Right Where You Belong – How to Identify and Fully Occupy Your God–Given Space - Candace Bure, Heather Macfadyen
Most lifestyle books for women are saying one of two things: "Hustle!" or "Slow down!" We are either prodded into endless activity and productivity or told that what we really need is to prioritize rest, relaxation, and simply "being." Is it any wonder we feel torn in every direction, worried we''re missing the opportunities God has placed before us while at the same time feeling guilty that we''re doing too much?Into this confusion comes Heather MacFadyen''s empowering message to simply occupy your God-given space--a Hebrew definition of humility. God has given you talents and a sphere of influence. Your role is to fill that space, empowered by the Holy Spirit. In this book, Heather presents four boundary lines to help you identify your unique God-given space and shows you how to evaluate your next steps with confident peace so that you can stop feeling exhausted and guilty and start feeling fulfilled.It''s time to replace FOMO, inadequacy, and hustle culture with the satisfaction that comes from owning the space we''ve been assigned. Right Where You Belong helps you get there.

It's On You - Nick Chater, George Loewenstein
‘A stirring call to action’ – TIM HARFORD‘A masterclass’ – DARON ACEMOGLU'An excellent book' – NASSIM NICHOLAS TALEBTwo decades ago, behavioral economics burst from academia to the halls of power, on both sides of the Atlantic, with the promise that correcting individual biases could help transform society. The hope was that governments could deploy a new approach to addressing society’s deepest challenges, from inadequate retirement planning to climate change—gently, but cleverly, nudging people to make choices for their own good and the good of the planet. It was all very convenient, and false. As behavioral scientists Nick Chater and George Loewenstein show in It’s On You, nudges rarely work, and divert us from policies that do. For example, being nudged to switch to green energy doesn’t cut carbon, and it distracts from the real challenge of building a low-carbon economy. It’s on You shows how the rich and powerful have repeatedly used a clever sleight of hand: blaming individuals for social problems, with behavioral economics an unwitting accomplice, while lobbying against the systemic changes that could actually help. As two original proponents of the nudge principle, Nick and George now argue that rather than trying to “fix†the victims of ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Get Happy - Gerald Clarke
Judy Garland, the girl with the pigtails in THE WIZARD OF OZ, was an entertainer of almost magical power. The woman of half a dozen comebacks and a hundred heartbreaks. To tell her story, Gerald Clarke took ten years, travelled thousands of miles across two continents, conducted hundreds of interviews, and combed through mountains of documents, many of which were unavailable to other biographers. Combining a novelist''s skill and a movie director''s eye, Clarke re-creates the golden age of Hollywood with cinematic urgency: Louis B Mayer, the patriarch of MGM; sexy Lana Turner, Judy''s friend and idol, who had a habit of trying to snatch away any man Judy expressed interest in; clarinettist Artie Shaw, handsome Tyrone Power; boy genius Orson Welles and brilliant director Vincente Minnelli, who fathered her first child, Liza. Towards the end of her life, Garland tried to tell her own story. With access to her tape recordings - and her revelatory unfinished manuscript - Clarke is able to tell Judy''s story as she herself might have told it.

Album scén z divadelních her - George Bernard Shaw - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Divadlo, divadlo, divadlo - miniserie určená pouze pro digitální prodej je věnovaná divadlu a autorům s divadlem spjatým. George Bernard Shaw (*26. 7. 1856 - 2. 11. 1950} byl anglický dramatik, prozaik a esejista irského původu, nositel Nobelovy ceny za literaturu za rok 1925. Své pravé umělecké pole našel Shaw až v dramatické tvorbě, ve které uplatnil svůj jasný, kritický a ironický intelekt. Stal se zakladatelem moderního anglického dramatu a nejvýznamnějším anglickým dramatikem po Williamu Shakespearovi. České divadlo, po staletí ovlivňováno a poznamenáno shakespearovským kultem, ve 20. století obrátilo pozornost k dílu Shakespearova protichůdce a představitele typické anglické komedie, jakým byl G.B.Shaw. Je typické, že jej neprve objevilo Národní divadlo a postupně uvádělo jeho díla, která však nedosáhla většího množství repríz /Člověk nikdy neví (1906), Živnost paní Warenové (1907), Motýl (1908)/; první velký úspěch zaznamenala hra Pygmalion (1913), která se stala oporou kmenového repertoáru NDa hrála se až do dvacátých let. Dalším velkým úspěchem byl Caesar a Kleopatra (1917). Ještě ve válečném období upoutával české prostředí svým odsudkem války a svou pacifistickou tendencí. Nové nastudování Živnosti paní Warenové je podstatně úspěšnější a i další hry G.B Shawa (Pekelník, Kateřina Veliká, Milionářka, Svatá Jana, Androkles a lev a další) , ...

Can You Forgive Her? - Anthony Trollope
''She loved him much, and admired him even more than she loved him...Would that he had some faults!''Alice Vavasor is torn between a risky marriage with her ambitious cousin George and the safer prospect of a union with the formidably correct John Grey. Her indecision is reflected in the dilemmas of her friend Lady Glencora, confined in the proprieties of her life with Plantagenet Palliser but tempted to escape with her penniless lover Burgo Fitzgerald, and of her aunt, the irreverent widow Mrs Greenow, who must choose between a solid farmer and an untrustworthy soldier as her next husband. Each woman finds her choice bound up with the cold realities of money, and the tension between public expectation and private inclination.Can You Forgive Her? is the first of Trollope''s six Palliser novels, and its focus on the exercise of power, whether in the masculine world of parliament and the professions, or within the domesticities of friendship, courtship, and marriage, signals a new breadth and diversity of interest in his fiction.
